Good morning you sexy motherfuckers!
Today was intended to get used and abused. We gotta optimize our time on this planet!
•
Embrace the fact that people are pissed they woke up on a Monday. Make this your time to mix it up!
•
Start your day by tossing some odd charitable compliments. Tell someone they have magnificent ears, gorgeous shins, impeccable heels, and maybe even a very supple pair of elbows. Mix up their day, they’d appreciate it.
•
Break those rotten habits that force you to automatically conclude the “shitty” day you’re having.
•
Change the pace today.
•
Oh yeah, and tune into the @youngmindspodcast Episode 29 and get those magnificent ears an orgasm.
•
So much love an appreciation for the listeners of the Young Minds community. Your participation and feedback have been INCREDIBLE! 🙏🏼

Sometimes we push harder and harder in life to get what we want, but get nowhere....sometimes we need to stop trying to chop down the trees (goals) and sharpen our axe (resting,reading and disconnecting)
Holidays I’ve neglected way too much in my life and it’s time that changed!
Having spent 1 week in San Francisco with an awesome family, and a very different culture I return with a renewed vigour and focus.
You can’t drive a car with an empty tank people!

“Know the ways of the ones who take care of you, so that you may take care of them.
Introduce yourself. Be accountable as the one who comes asking for life. Ask permission before taking. Abide by the answer.
Never take the first. Never take the last. Take only what you need.
Take only that which is given.
Never take more than half. Leave some for others. Harvest in a way that minimizes harm.
Use it respectfully. Never waste what you have taken. Share.
Give thanks for what you have been given.
Give a gift, in reciprocity for what you have taken.
Sustain the ones who sustain you and the earth will last forever.”

It was finally time to plant my babies out into the soft earth! These are the first trees I have planted on the new land and although the trees are already abundant there, it felt beautiful to give back to the land in some way. 115 trees, newly planted!
Developing a relationship of reciprocity with the land creates deeper connection and feeling between the land and yourself. You begin to know things, tune into more subtle energies around and for me when I garden I see the most wonderful mandalas of the plants I am working with at night when I close my eyes. They begin to teach you their language and guide you into a place of deeper peace and knowing!
I’m so blessed to have been chosen as guardian of this beautiful land. And I look forward to many more hours with my hands in the dirt here! I have visions of myself with my grandchildren sitting under the big trees, singing songs and telling stories!

As a founder, it’s on me to see that this business thrives and that my clients and partners feel the love that I have for then in more than word alone. I feel so lucky to have the opportunity to work with wonderful people on rich and inspiring work.
My family gives me joy in a deep rooted way. I am constantly supported. I need to figure out a way to not be an energy sucking pit but rather a synthesizer of such beauty who can reflect it back in the level it is shown to me every day.
No business progress can be made without self progress.
It’s time for some energy cleanup and healing.
Good things are to come.

👉 Leadership is all about relationships—the connections we make, the friendships we create. So how can friendship and leadership coexist❓ 👉 In fact, the two types of relationships have more in common than you’d expect. Here are some of the shared traits: 💫 #Altruism . Like friendship, true leadership involves selflessness and concern for the well-being of another. It may mean putting your people ahead of yourself, looking out for the other person, or acting in a way that benefits another. It comes down to bringing out the best in those you lead and befriend. 🙏 💫 #Loyalty . Both friendship and leadership are about devotion. Allegiance and faithfulness call for us to be steadfast and dependable. Loyalty requires responsibility and commitment. 🙏 💫 #Honesty . Like friendship, true leadership having integrity, encouraging others to speak up and tell their truth. It means expecting leaders to be honest and frank (although never unkind) with their feedback and communication. When we are able to communicate honestly, we are holding up a mirror to each other that makes for the best leadership and friendship. 🙏 💫 #Trust . Like friendship, true leadership trust means having confidence in each other, the faith that if anything goes wrong you will be there for each other, and the certainty that no matter how much you err or fail you will never be left behind. Trust in leadership and friendship gives us someone to rely on. 🙏 💫 #Reciprocity . Like friendship, true leadership is a give and take. It reflects the practice of sharing and exchanging, knowing how to give and take with generosity. 🙏 💫 #Compassion . Both friendship and leadership bring concerns about the suffering of others. It’s an attitude that calls us to reach out when there needs to be a listening ear 👂 and to be open when there needs to be understanding—all with sympathy, warmth, and kindness. Great leadership involves respect and great friendship involves tenderness; both open our hearts to others.🙏 #nevergiveup#strong#Believe#beyou#unlimited#unique#dreambig#dreamscometrue#want#vision#achieve#goals#lifestyle#love#LiveTheLifeYouLove#success#chance#LoveTheLifeYouLive#challenge
